TaskTag vs. CompanyCam: The Best Delivery Photo Proof Workflow for Construction Teams
Your Best Project Photos Are Dying in Group Texts — Here’s How TaskTag Fixes It (and Why CompanyCam Doesn’t)
If you’ve ever asked your crew for jobsite photos, you already know how this goes.
You get:
- A blurry image with no context
- A “before” photo taken halfway through demo
- A picture of someone’s lunch
- And a bunch of photos you can’t even identify
Meanwhile, your marketing team is trying to post progress updates, build case studies, or send client reports — and they’re working with... whatever that is.
Why Delivery Photo Proof Fails with Group Texts and Photo Apps
Photos aren’t the issue.
Your team already takes them. Constantly.
The issue is structure.
Right now, jobsite photos are:
- Buried in personal camera rolls
- Lost in group texts
- Uploaded to the wrong folder
- Or dumped into an app like CompanyCam with zero context
So when it’s time to show a transformation, prove work, or build trust with visuals — you’re digging through a digital haystack.

CompanyCam for Delivery Photos: Strengths and Limitations
At first, we thought CompanyCam was the answer.
It’s clean, familiar, and built for contractors. It lets you:
- Snap and tag photos
- Organize by project
- Share albums with clients or teams
But here’s what we ran into:
- Crews didn’t always tag photos correctly
- There were no built-in instructions or checklists
- It wasn’t clear which photos were before/after
- We still had to chase people for missing shots
- And when we needed a full project story — it wasn’t there
CompanyCam stores photos. But it doesn’t guide the photo process.

TaskTag for Delivery Photo Proof: Structured Workflows that Save Time
TaskTag isn’t a photo app — it’s a workflow system that happens to be really good at handling jobsite photos.
Instead of dumping images into a gallery, TaskTag turns photo capture into a structured task. Here’s how it works:
Step 1: Create a Delivery Photo Task with Built-In Checklist
This isn’t a folder. It’s a real task inside the project — with a checklist, instructions, and a place to drop photos.
Step 2: Upload Delivery Photos with Hashtags and Task Context
They’re already using TaskTag to check schedules, log work, or chat.
Now, they just upload the photos inside the task, or send them in chat with a project hashtag like #Elm_Street.
Step 3: Keep Delivery Photos Organized, Timestamped, and Searchable
No more guessing. You can filter by project, tag, or task. And marketing can instantly find what they need — without bugging the field.

Real-World Example: TaskTag Delivery Photo Proof in Action
Project: Elm Street Kitchen Renovation
Task: “Before & After Log”
Checklist inside the task:
- Before photos: wide + detail
- After photos: wide + detail
- Notes: what changed
- Optional walkthrough video
In chat:
“Before demo — cabinets + flooring. 8:12am. #Elm_Street”
📸 Wide photo
📸 Close-up of flooring damage
“After install — tile + cabinets done. 4:45pm #Elm_Street”
📸 Wide shot
📸 Detail of backsplash
Now the story writes itself — and marketing just downloads what they need.
